Please take a look at the 1-year chart of EBAY (eBay, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of EBAY (eBay, Inc.) EBAY has been holding a very important level of support of $50 (navy) since December of last year. You can also see that $50 had been a resistance (red) prior to that back in October and November. No matter what the market has or has not done since December, the stock has held that $50 level. EBAY is approaching $50 again and that should provide another bounce higher, but if the overall market sells-off, EBAY could break that support.
The Tale of the Tape: EBAY has a very strong level of support at $50. A trader could enter a long position at $50 with a stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the support, a short position would be recommended instead.
